Some of our Community Involvement

MAHOMET PUBLIC LIBRARY

MTCWC members were influential in starting the original public library in Mahomet and our club has supported the library since it's beginning. Donations over the years help towards books, computers & other library needs. Cookbooks sales & nut sales funds enabled us to donate $10,000 to the New Public Library for the clock tower outside the building.

MAHOMET HELPING HANDS
Our club makes monetary donations to this community food pantry.
We provide assistance by giving our time during their October
collection & food distribution. We also collect paper products throughout the year for them

SPRING CLEAN-UP FOR FOREST PARK DISTRICT
As a community service project, several members braved the wet weather to weed flower beds at a Lake of the Woods site for the park district.

Wet, muddy shoes but a job well done!


NUT SALES
Our main fundraising is done through our annual nut sales. We are the local "Nut Ladies".
We sell mainly through our members personally contacting known customers or new contacts.
These nut sale profits allow us to donate to worthy causes in the Mahomet community.
Occasionally we sell nuts at local events
